Again, thanks for writing about your experience - did you have to reset the NAV system to get the reverse cam detected? I'm concerned about that step too, since I have the 6.1 NAV version and can't go into the diagnostics screen.
I worried a little about camera security, but my car lives in my garage mostly. The camera mounts with 3M tape so I could stick in on the car or the license plate frame. I chose the frame since it was closer to center. If someone wants the camera so bad, let them have it. It's only $140 and the hard part was the wiring, which would still be there. And the camera is actually pretty unobstrusive. Most wouldn't notice it unless they went looking for it.

Once the camera was plugged in, it played on the nav right away. Didn't have to do a reset or anything.
